Please post plain text instead of html.  With Outlook Express, at least, it is impossible to respond properly (after the quoted original text).  Next, read the tutorial and then the relevant parts of the Manuals.  In particular, in the Lib Reference. the sections on file objects and the os module.  While doing so, experiment with statements using the interactive interpreter.
